When we get promotion, this is what we sing:

[Deano6]

E-I-E-I-E-I-O

Up the Football League we go

When we get promotion, this is what we'll sing:

"We are Southampton,

We are Southampton,

Adkins is our king!"

 

 

Yet I didn't hear one rendition of said song today.

 

Saints fans: liars or hypocrites?

[teacher]

You must be deaf then! Was sung plenty of times.

[Delboy Dave]

Heard it loads

[70's Mike]

sorry about your hearing problems

[Dr Who?]

Strange thing to say!

[Saint_Donovan]

I must have sung it at least 10 times

[Tokyo-Saint]

Think your missing the subtle joke here lads. It's the "we are Southampton, we are Southampton, Adkins is our king" part. As we have been promoted, we should have just sung that part on its own... "when we got promotion, this is what we'll sing" etc

[Toomer]

Must have been singing it on my own, at least a dozen times.

[Deano6]

You are the one oasis of hope in a desert of morons, sir.

[Fan The Flames]

E-I-E-I-E-I-O

Up the Premier League we go

When we get to Europe, this is what we'll sing:

"We are Southampton,

We are Southampton,

Adkins is our king!"

[KK the 2nd]

I was signing "Nigel is our king"?

[Colinjb]

It was being sung a great deal in Yates' after. God I'm still shattered.

[Tokyo-Saint]

You are the one oasis of hope in a desert of morons, sir.

 

Thank you!

 

The really amazing thing is some people still don't get it even after the joke was explained to them. "I heard the whole of the king Alfred sing it at least 10 times..."

[KK the 2nd]

To be fair most people's weekend has been a alcoholic blur
